10.75 oz per box times 12 boxes= 129 oz
there are 16 oz in one pound..., so divide your answer by 16 to find out that a dozen boxes will weigh
129/16=8.0625lbs
(IF you want to, you could convert to lbs first...
10.75 oz / 16 = 0.671875 lbs per box
0.671875*12boxes=8.0625lbs)
the decimal part can be changed so that it's in oz. you have
129 oz. and you know that it equals 8lbs. and some ounces (the decimal)
8lbs * 16 = 128 lbs... which leaves 1 oz left over
8lbs 1 oz....
